Beware of Chips & Bits Shipping Charges - Very, very ex

Boy, do I feel like an idiot. I didn't read the shipping policies at Chips & Bits and got hosed. They charged me $5.25 in handling fees on top of the priority mail charge. It cost nearly $8.00 to have one CD (just in its protective envelope - not even a DVD case or jewel box)shipped to me by priority mail. Can you say rip-off? This is totally my fault. The prices were on the web site, so, buyer beware. But I hope you all can benefit from my mistake. Check out the price of shipping when price shopping (and then let Chips and Bits know when they lose a sale becuase of their shipping policies).While the industry trend is toward cheaper or free shipping for internet orders, Chips and Bits seems to be going the other way.
